In February, she and her rink competed in the 2019 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, where they lost in the finals to Alberta’s rink skipped by Chelsea Carey of Calgary.

And in April, Homan competed in the Humpty’s Champions Cup where her rink made it to the semi-finals before losing to Switzerland.

Prior to her pregnancy, in September 2018, Homan and her team won the women’s first leg of the four-leg 2018-19 Curling World Cup in Suzhou, China, but to compete in the women’s Grand Final in May was cutting it too close to her due date for comfort.

She was replaced by fellow curling rock star Jennifer Jones, who beat out Switzerland in the final.

“Obviously family is way more important than curling,” Homan said in an interview with CBC Sports in January. “When it comes down to it everyone on the team knows family comes first.”
